CHlNKS GREAT WAL A MYTH.

Able Larrieu, formerly a mis-
sionary in China, has published q
pamphlet (Paris, LerouX) on the
Great Wall of China, to demon
strate that this structure does not
exist and has never existed. The
popular belief is that this wall
stretches for about 800 leagues
across China, from the sea TO the
province Of Kan-Su, that it is wholly
constructed of cut stone, and thirty
cubits high by twelve broad. 1t is
believed TO run straight on regard
less or obstacles, going down val
leys and up mountains without a
break, except such as time has
made, along its whole course. This
notion originated with Jesuit
named Martini, who visited China
about 1860, and his description was
followed by subsequent writer's. M.
Larrieu has lived for several years
under what would have been the
shadow OF the Great Wall had there
been one; he has studied the writ
ings of recent writers-especially
Able Iuc-who have crossed the
line of the alleged wall in various
places he has likewise studied the
Chinese history of the subject, and
his conclusions are as follows: CD
the term "Great Wall" is at the
bottom of all the misunderstanding,
and it comes from the Chinese eX.
preston, "the wall of the ten thou
sand liz" (2) as described by Mar
TIM and other writers who have
copied him, this wall does not and
never did exist; (3) Chinese EN-
peror undoubtedly did conceive the
idea of great wall from the Gulf
Of Liao-Long on the east to Kan-Su
on the west, and this, though never
realized, had a beginning; (4) all
along the proposed line of the wall
square towers of earth, or of earth
faced with brick, were constructed
at considerable distances from each
other, but these were never joined
together by any wall as was origi-
nally intended. In some of the
deiiles along the route there are
walls, but these were intended to
close these particular passages, or
they are merely the walls of viii
lagos, and are not parts of larger
scheme. Hence the only part of
the scheme of the Great Wall car
ried out was the. construction of
these scattered towers; the rest
never went beyond the brain that
conceived it; it was never more
than a fancy, and it is now a myth.
This huge Chinese wall, says Able
Larrieu, is huge Chinese lie, and
as for the million soldiers which
were said to guard it at night and
day, they are myths likewise. The
alleged Great Wall is a favorite
excursion for Europeans visiting
Pekin, and such a question as
whether it exists at all or not should
be an easy one to settle definitely

Gen. Terry's Important Dispatch on
the Situation.

Adjutant Geneneral Drum has received the fol-
lowing telegram from Gen. Terry, dated Chicago,
August %:
"Your dispatch Of yesterday reached me this
morning, and have sent it to Gen. Crook for his
Information and guidance. But as l understood
the Information, perhaps imperfect, that have,
the present trouble Is entirely within the bounda-
r1es OF the State OF Colorado and has arisen from
an attempt to execute the process of civil court
OF that State. The sheriff has called out posse,
and detachment of militia has been sent to him,
or is on the way to him. Under these cir
cumstances and In view of section Is
OF the army appropriation act approved
June 1S, 1878, 1 do not see that the
troops OF tne United States can be lawfully
uSed In alo OF the sheriff, unless the legislature
governor OF colorado shall represent TO the Presi
dent tnat an inSurrection exists and shall call
upon nlm lor aid IN suppressing 1t; does there
seem 70 De any other action that military officers
can take SO long as the sheriff, with his posse
ana tne militia, are pressing the Indians and
threatening an immediate attack, efforts to induce
ColOrow ana MS followers to return to the agency
would IN an probability be useless. The only
course OF actlon That appears to me to be feasible
is TO lnduce the State authorities to suspend
the execution OF their process until an EFFORT can
be mace by United States authority to
induce the Indians to return to their homes.
AS yet no troops have been sent to the scene Of
action, though they are held ready to march. In
view OF the severe penalties imposed by the act OF
1873 on military officers who shall unlawfully use
troops IN AID OF the civil authorities ask for more
explicit instructions for nv guidance

would be absurd TO bring him back from the Alps
to sit for few hours between Gladstone and Har-

credence the report receives probably due TO the

The Charges Against Lieut.. Weber.

WHAT GEN. GREELY SAYS ABOUT THE CASE
Second Lieut.. j. II. Weber, OF the Signal Corps,
who is to be tried by court-martial on Monday, at
the Washington barracks, is charged by Gen.
Greely with neglect Of duty and disobedience OF
orders, for not having made monthly reports Of
his work while in charge Of the Woods Hol and
which We're issued by Gen. Hazen while he was
Chief Signal Officer. The friends OF the accused
officer think that he is being unJuStly treated and
say that the condition of his health precluded his
obeying the orders TO the letter. Gen. Greely said
to-day, however, that Lieut.. Weber had been fire.
quently warned that his continued neglect Of duty
would get him into trouble, and as it was known
his health was poor, he was given permission to
make his reports at any time during the month
when able, first reporting that sickness prevented
his submitting it on time. No attention was paid
to the warning. and the Chief Signal Officer felt
called upon to take official action.
